1 Samuel 30

KJV

1  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ when David¹⁷³² and his men³⁷⁶ were come⁹³⁵ to Ziklag⁶⁸⁶⁰ on the third⁷⁹⁹² day,³¹¹⁷ that the Amalekites⁶⁰⁰³ had invaded^{6584 413} the south,⁵⁰⁴⁵ and Ziklag,⁶⁸⁶⁰ and smitten^{5221 853} Ziklag,⁶⁸⁶⁰ and burned⁸³¹³ it with fire;⁷⁸⁴

2  And had taken the women captives,^{7617 853 802} that⁸³⁴ were therein: they slew⁴¹⁹¹ not³⁸⁰⁸ any,³⁷⁶ either⁵⁷⁰⁴ great¹⁴¹⁹ or small,^{4480 6996} but carried them away,⁵⁰⁹⁰ and went¹⁹⁸⁰ on their way.¹⁸⁷⁰

3  So David¹⁷³² and his men³⁷⁶ came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ the city,⁵⁸⁹² and, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ it was burned⁸³¹³ with fire;⁷⁸⁴ and their wives,⁸⁰² and their sons,¹¹²¹ and their daughters,¹³²³ were taken captives.⁷⁶¹⁷

4  Then David¹⁷³² and the people⁵⁹⁷¹ that⁸³⁴ were with⁸⁵⁴ him lifted up^{5375 853} their voice⁶⁹⁶³ and wept,¹⁰⁵⁸ until^{5704 834} they had no more³⁶⁹ power³⁵⁸¹ to weep.¹⁰⁵⁸

5  And David's¹⁷³² two⁸¹⁴⁷ wives⁸⁰² were taken captives,⁷⁶¹⁷ Ahinoam²⁹³ the Jezreelitess,³¹⁵⁹ and Abigail²⁶ the wife⁸⁰² of Nabal⁵⁰³⁷ the Carmelite.³⁷⁶¹

6  And David¹⁷³² was greatly³⁹⁶⁶ distressed;³³³⁴ for³⁵⁸⁸ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ spoke⁵⁵⁹ of stoning⁵⁶¹⁹ him, because³⁵⁸⁸ the soul⁵³¹⁵ of all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ was grieved,⁴⁸⁴³ every man³⁷⁶ for⁵⁹²¹ his sons¹¹²¹ and for⁵⁹²¹ his daughters:¹³²³ but David¹⁷³² encouraged himself²³⁸⁸ in the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ his God.⁴³⁰

7  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ Abiathar⁵⁴ the priest,³⁵⁴⁸ Ahimelech's²⁸⁸ son,¹¹²¹ I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ bring me hither⁵⁰⁶⁶ the ephod.⁶⁴⁶ And Abiathar⁵⁴ brought⁵⁰⁶⁶ thither ⁸⁵³ the ephod⁶⁴⁶ to⁴¹³ David.¹⁷³²

8  And David¹⁷³² inquired⁷⁵⁹² at the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Shall I pursue⁷²⁹¹ after³¹⁰ this²⁰⁸⁸ troop?¹⁴¹⁶ shall I overtake⁵³⁸¹ them? And he answered⁵⁵⁹ him, Pursue:⁷²⁹¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ thou shalt surely overtake^{5381 5381} them, and without fail recover^{5337 5337} all.

9  So David¹⁷³² went,¹⁹⁸⁰ he¹⁹³¹ and the six⁸³³⁷ hundred³⁹⁶⁷ men³⁷⁶ that⁸³⁴ were with⁸⁵⁴ him, and came⁹³⁵ to⁵⁷⁰⁴ the brook⁵¹⁵⁸ Besor,¹³⁰⁸ where those that were left behind³⁴⁹⁸ stayed.⁵⁹⁷⁵

10  But David¹⁷³² pursued,⁷²⁹¹ he¹⁹³¹ and four⁷⁰² hundred³⁹⁶⁷ men:³⁷⁶ for two hundred^{3967 376} abode behind,⁵⁹⁷⁵ which⁸³⁴ were so faint⁶²⁹⁶ that they could not go over^{4480 5674 853} the brook⁵¹⁵⁸ Besor.¹³⁰⁸

11  And they found⁴⁶⁷² an Egyptian^{376 4713} in the field,⁷⁷⁰⁴ and brought³⁹⁴⁷ him to⁴¹³ David,¹⁷³² and gave⁵⁴¹⁴ him bread,³⁸⁹⁹ and he did eat;³⁹⁸ and they made him drink⁸²⁴⁸ water;⁴³²⁵

12  And they gave⁵⁴¹⁴ him a piece⁶⁴⁰⁰ of a cake of figs,¹⁶⁹⁰ and two⁸¹⁴⁷ clusters of raisins:⁶⁷⁷⁸ and when he had eaten,³⁹⁸ his spirit⁷³⁰⁷ came again⁷⁷²⁵ to⁴¹³ him: for³⁵⁸⁸ he had eaten³⁹⁸ no³⁸⁰⁸ bread,³⁸⁹⁹ nor³⁸⁰⁸ drunk⁸³⁵⁴ any water,⁴³²⁵ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ days³¹¹⁷ and three⁷⁹⁶⁹ nights.³⁹¹⁵

13  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, To whom⁴³¹⁰ belongest thou?⁸⁵⁹ and whence^{335 4480 2088} art thou?⁸⁵⁹ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ I⁵⁹⁵ am a young man⁵²⁸⁸ of Egypt,⁴⁷¹³ servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ to an Amalekite;^{376 6003} and my master¹¹³ left⁵⁸⁰⁰ me, because³⁵⁸⁸ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ days³¹¹⁷ ago I fell sick.²⁴⁷⁰

14  We⁵⁸⁷ made an invasion⁶⁵⁸⁴ upon the south⁵⁰⁴⁵ of the Cherethites,³⁷⁷⁴ and upon⁵⁹²¹ the coast which⁸³⁴ belongeth to Judah,³⁰⁶³ and upon⁵⁹²¹ the south⁵⁰⁴⁵ of Caleb;³⁶¹² and we burned⁸³¹³ Ziklag⁶⁸⁶⁰ with fire.⁷⁸⁴

15  And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ him, Canst thou bring me down³³⁸¹ to⁴¹³ this²⁰⁸⁸ company?¹⁴¹⁶ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Swear⁷⁶⁵⁰ unto me by God,⁴³⁰ that thou wilt neither⁵¹⁸ kill⁴¹⁹¹ me, nor⁵¹⁸ deliver⁵⁴⁶² me into the hands³⁰²⁷ of my master,¹¹³ and I will bring thee down³³⁸¹ to⁴¹³ this²⁰⁸⁸ company.¹⁴¹⁶

16  And when he had brought him down,³³⁸¹ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ they were spread abroad⁵²⁰³ upon^{5921 6440} all³⁶⁰⁵ the earth,⁷⁷⁶ eating³⁹⁸ and drinking,⁸³⁵⁴ and dancing,²²⁸⁷ because of all³⁶⁰⁵ the great¹⁴¹⁹ spoil⁷⁹⁹⁸ that⁸³⁴ they had taken³⁹⁴⁷ out of the land^{4480 776} of the Philistines,⁶⁴³⁰ and out of the land^{4480 776} of Judah.³⁰⁶³

17  And David¹⁷³² smote⁵²²¹ them from the twilight^{4480 5399} even unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ the evening⁶¹⁵³ of the next day:⁴²⁸³ and there escaped⁴⁴²² not³⁸⁰⁸ a man³⁷⁶ of them, save^{3588 518} four⁷⁰² hundred³⁹⁶⁷ young⁵²⁸⁸ men,³⁷⁶ which⁸³⁴ rode⁷³⁹² upon⁵⁹²¹ camels,¹⁵⁸¹ and fled.⁵¹²⁷

18  And David¹⁷³² recovered^{5337 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ the Amalekites⁶⁰⁰² had carried away:³⁹⁴⁷ and David¹⁷³² rescued⁵³³⁷ his two⁸¹⁴⁷ wives.⁸⁰²

19  And there was nothing³⁸⁰⁸ lacking⁵⁷³⁷ to them, neither⁴⁴⁸⁰ small⁶⁹⁹⁶ nor⁵⁷⁰⁴ great,¹⁴¹⁹ neither⁵⁷⁰⁴ sons¹¹²¹ nor daughters,¹³²³ neither spoil,^{4480 7998} nor⁵⁷⁰⁴ any³⁶⁰⁵ thing that⁸³⁴ they had taken³⁹⁴⁷ to them: David¹⁷³² recovered⁷⁷²⁵ all.³⁶⁰⁵

20  And David¹⁷³² took^{3947 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ the flocks⁶⁶²⁹ and the herds,¹²⁴¹ which they drove⁵⁰⁹⁰ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ those¹⁹³¹ other cattle,⁴⁷³⁵ and said,⁵⁵⁹ This²⁰⁸⁸ is David's¹⁷³² spoil.⁷⁹⁹⁸

21  And David¹⁷³² came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ the two hundred³⁹⁶⁷ men,³⁷⁶ which⁸³⁴ were so faint⁶²⁹⁶ that they could not follow^{1980 310} David,¹⁷³² whom they had made also to abide³⁴²⁷ at the brook⁵¹⁵⁸ Besor:¹³⁰⁸ and they went forth³³¹⁸ to meet⁷¹²⁵ David,¹⁷³² and to meet⁷¹²⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ that⁸³⁴ were with⁸⁵⁴ him: and when David¹⁷³² came near⁵⁰⁶⁶ to ⁸⁵³ the people,⁵⁹⁷¹ he saluted^{7592 7965} them.

22  Then answered⁶⁰³⁰ all³⁶⁰⁵ the wicked⁷⁴⁵¹ men³⁷⁶ and men of Belial,¹¹⁰⁰ of those^{4480 376} that⁸³⁴ went¹⁹⁸⁰ with⁵⁹⁷³ David,¹⁷³² and said,⁵⁵⁹ Because^{3282 834} they went¹⁹⁸⁰ not³⁸⁰⁸ with⁵⁹⁷³ us, we will not³⁸⁰⁸ give⁵⁴¹⁴ them aught of the spoil^{4480 7998} that⁸³⁴ we have recovered,⁵³³⁷ save^{3588 518} to every man^{376 853} his wife⁸⁰² and his children,¹¹²¹ that they may lead them away,⁵⁰⁹⁰ and depart.¹⁹⁸⁰

23  Then said⁵⁵⁹ David,¹⁷³² Ye shall not³⁸⁰⁸ do⁶²¹³ so,³⁶⁵¹ my brethren,²⁵¹ with⁸⁵⁴ that which⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath given⁵⁴¹⁴ us, who hath preserved⁸¹⁰⁴ us, and delivered^{5414 853} the company¹⁴¹⁶ that came⁹³⁵ against⁵⁹²¹ us into our hand.³⁰²⁷

24  For who⁴³¹⁰ will hearken⁸⁰⁸⁵ unto you in this²⁰⁸⁸ matter?¹⁶⁹⁷ but³⁵⁸⁸ as his part²⁵⁰⁶ is that goeth down³³⁸¹ to the battle,⁴⁴²¹ so shall his part²⁵⁰⁶ be that tarrieth³⁴²⁷ by⁵⁹²¹ the stuff:³⁶²⁷ they shall part²⁵⁰⁵ alike.³¹⁶²

25  And it was¹⁹⁶¹ so from that day^{4480 3117 1931} forward,⁴⁶⁰⁵ that he made⁷⁷⁶⁰ it a statute²⁷⁰⁶ and an ordinance⁴⁹⁴¹ for Israel³⁴⁷⁸ unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ this²⁰⁸⁸ day.³¹¹⁷

26  And when David¹⁷³² came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ Ziklag,⁶⁸⁶⁰ he sent⁷⁹⁷¹ of the spoil^{4480 7998} unto the elders²²⁰⁵ of Judah,³⁰⁶³ even to his friends,⁷⁴⁵³ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Behold²⁰⁰⁹ a present¹²⁹³ for you of the spoil^{4480 7998} of the enemies³⁴¹ of the LORD;³⁰⁶⁸

27  To them which⁸³⁴ were in Bethel,¹⁰⁰⁸ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in south⁵⁰⁴⁵ Ramoth,⁷⁴¹⁸ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in Jattir,³⁴⁹²

28  And to them which⁸³⁴ were in Aroer,⁶¹⁷⁷ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in Siphmoth,⁸²²⁴ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in Eshtemoa,⁸⁵¹

29  And to them which⁸³⁴ were in Rachal,⁷⁴⁰³ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in the cities⁵⁸⁹² of the Jerahmeelites,³³⁹⁷ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in the cities⁵⁸⁹² of the Kenites,⁷⁰¹⁷

30  And to them which⁸³⁴ were in Hormah,²⁷⁶⁷ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in Chor-ashan,³⁵⁶⁵ and to them which⁸³⁴ were in Athach,⁶²⁶⁹

31  And to them which⁸³⁴ were in Hebron,²²⁷⁵ and to all³⁶⁰⁵ the places⁴⁷²⁵ where^{834 8033} David¹⁷³² himself¹⁹³¹ and his men³⁷⁶ were wont to haunt.¹⁹⁸⁰

1 καὶ ἐγενήθη εἰσελθόντος Δαυιδ καὶ τῶν ἀνδρῶν αὐτοῦ εἰς Σεκελακ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ καὶ Αμαληκ ἐπέθετο ἐπὶ τὸν νότον καὶ ἐπὶ Σεκελακ καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὴν Σεκελακ καὶ ἐνεπύρισεν αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί

2 καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου οὐκ ἐθανάτωσαν ἄνδρα καὶ γυναῖκα ἀλλ᾽ ᾐχμαλώτευσαν καὶ ἀπῆλθον εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτῶν

3 καὶ ἦλθεν Δαυιδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν πόλιν καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐμπεπύρισται ἐν πυρί αἱ δὲ γυναῖκες αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν ᾐχμαλωτευμένοι

4 καὶ ἦρεν Δαυιδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν καὶ ἔκλαυσαν ἕως ὅτου οὐκ ἦν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἰσχὺς ἔτι κλαίειν

5 καὶ ἀμφότεραι αἱ γυναῖκες Δαυιδ ᾐχμαλωτεύθησαν Αχινοομ ἡ Ιεζραηλῖτις καὶ Αβιγαια ἡ γυνὴ Ναβαλ τοῦ Καρμηλίου

6 καὶ ἐθλίβη Δαυιδ σφόδρα ὅτι εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς λιθοβολῆσαι αὐτόν ὅτι κατώδυνος ψυχὴ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ ἑκάστου ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκραταιώθη Δαυιδ ἐν κυρίῳ θεῷ αὐτοῦ

7 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς Αβιαθαρ τὸν ἱερέα υἱὸν Αχιμελεχ προσάγαγε τὸ εφουδ

8 καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν Δαυιδ διὰ τοῦ κυρίου λέγων εἰ καταδιώξω ὀπίσω τοῦ γεδδουρ τούτου εἰ καταλήμψομαι αὐτούς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ καταδίωκε ὅτι καταλαμβάνων καταλήμψῃ καὶ ἐξαιρούμενος ἐξελῇ

9 καὶ ἐπορεύθη Δαυιδ αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ ἑξακόσιοι ἄνδρες μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔρχονται ἕως τοῦ χειμάρρου Βοσορ καὶ οἱ περισσοὶ ἔστησαν

10 καὶ κατεδίωξεν ἐν τετρακοσίοις ἀνδράσιν ὑπέστησαν δὲ διακόσιοι ἄνδρες οἵτινες ἐκάθισαν πέραν τοῦ χειμάρρου τοῦ Βοσορ

11 καὶ εὑρίσκουσιν ἄνδρα Αἰγύπτιον ἐν ἀγρῷ καὶ λαμβάνουσιν αὐτὸν καὶ ἄγουσιν αὐτὸν πρὸς Δαυιδ ἐν ἀγρῷ καὶ διδόασιν αὐτῷ ἄρτον καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἐπότισαν αὐτὸν ὕδωρ

12 καὶ διδόασιν αὐτῷ κλάσμα παλάθης καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ κατέστη τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ ὅτι οὐ βεβρώκει ἄρτον καὶ οὐ πεπώκει ὕδωρ τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ τρεῖς νύκτας

13 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαυιδ τίνος σὺ εἶ καὶ πόθεν εἶ καὶ εἶπεν τὸ παιδάριον τὸ Αἰγύπτιον ἐγώ εἰμι δοῦλος ἀνδρὸς Αμαληκίτου καὶ κατέλιπέν με ὁ κύριός μου ὅτι ἠνωχλήθην ἐγὼ σήμερον τριταῖος

14 καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐπεθέμεθα ἐπὶ νότον τοῦ Χολθι καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ τῆς Ιουδαίας μέρη καὶ ἐπὶ νότον Χελουβ καὶ τὴν Σεκελακ ἐνεπυρίσαμεν ἐν πυρί

15 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν Δαυιδ εἰ κατάξεις με ἐπὶ τὸ γεδδουρ τοῦτο καὶ εἶπεν ὄμοσον δή μοι κατὰ τοῦ θεοῦ μὴ θανατώσειν με καὶ μὴ παραδοῦναί με εἰς χεῖρας τοῦ κυρίου μου καὶ κατάξω σε ἐπὶ τὸ γεδδουρ τοῦτο

16 καὶ κατήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ καὶ ἰδοὺ οὗτοι διακεχυμένοι ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πάσης τῆς γῆς ἐσθίοντες καὶ πίνοντες καὶ ἑορτάζοντες ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς σκύλοις τοῖς μεγάλοις οἷς ἔλαβον ἐκ γῆς ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐκ γῆς Ιουδα

17 καὶ ἦλθεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς Δαυιδ καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ ἑωσφόρου ἕως δείλης καὶ τῇ ἐπαύριον καὶ οὐκ ἐσώθη ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀνὴρ ὅτι ἀλλ᾽ ἢ τετρακόσια παιδάρια ἃ ἦν ἐπιβεβηκότα ἐπὶ τὰς καμήλους καὶ ἔφυγον

18 καὶ ἀφείλατο Δαυιδ πάντα ἃ ἔλαβον οἱ Αμαληκῖται καὶ ἀμφοτέρας τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτοῦ ἐξείλατο

19 καὶ οὐ διεφώνησεν αὐτοῖς ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν σκύλων καὶ ἕως υἱῶν καὶ θυγατέρων καὶ ἕως πάντων ὧν ἔλαβον αὐτῶν τὰ πάντα ἐπέστρεψεν Δαυιδ

20 καὶ ἔλαβεν Δαυιδ πάντα τὰ ποίμνια καὶ τὰ βουκόλια καὶ ἀπήγαγεν ἔμπροσθεν τῶν σκύλων καὶ τοῖς σκύλοις ἐκείνοις ἐλέγετο ταῦτα τὰ σκῦλα Δαυιδ

21 καὶ παραγίνεται Δαυιδ πρὸς τοὺς διακοσίους ἄνδρας τοὺς ἐκλυθέντας τοῦ πορεύεσθαι ὀπίσω Δαυιδ καὶ ἐκάθισεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ τῷ Βοσορ καὶ ἐξῆλθον εἰς ἀπάντησιν Δαυιδ καὶ εἰς ἀπάντησιν τοῦ λαοῦ τοῦ μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ προσήγαγεν Δαυιδ ἕως τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ ἠρώτησαν αὐτὸν τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην

22 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη πᾶς ἀνὴρ λοιμὸς καὶ πονηρὸς τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν πολεμιστῶν τῶν πορευθέντων μετὰ Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπαν ὅτι οὐ κατεδίωξαν μεθ᾽ ἡμῶν οὐ δώσομεν αὐτοῖς ἐκ τῶν σκύλων ὧν ἐξειλάμεθα ὅτι ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἕκαστος τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτοῦ ἀπαγέσθωσαν καὶ ἀποστρεφέτωσαν

23 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ οὐ ποιήσετε οὕτως μετὰ τὸ παραδοῦναι τὸν κύριον ἡμῖν καὶ φυλάξαι ἡμᾶς καὶ παρέδωκεν κύριος τὸν γεδδουρ τὸν ἐπερχόμενον ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς εἰς χεῖρας ἡμῶν

24 καὶ τίς ὑπακούσεται ὑμῶν τῶν λόγων τούτων ὅτι οὐχ ἧττον ὑμῶν εἰσιν διότι κατὰ τὴν μερίδα τοῦ καταβαίνοντος εἰς πόλεμον οὕτως ἔσται ἡ μερὶς τοῦ καθημένου ἐπὶ τὰ σκεύη κατὰ τὸ αὐτὸ μεριοῦνται

25 καὶ ἐγενήθη ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης καὶ ἐπάνω καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς πρόσταγμα καὶ εἰς δικαίωμα τῷ Ισραηλ ἕως τῆς σήμερον

26 καὶ ἦλθεν Δαυιδ εἰς Σεκελακ καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τοῖς πρεσβυτέροις Ιουδα τῶν σκύλων καὶ τοῖς πλησίον αὐτοῦ λέγων ἰδοὺ ἀπὸ τῶν σκύλων τῶν ἐχθρῶν κυρίου

27 τοῖς ἐν Βαιθσουρ καὶ τοῖς ἐν Ραμα νότου καὶ τοῖς ἐν Ιεθθορ

28 καὶ τοῖς ἐν Αροηρ καὶ τοῖς Αμμαδι καὶ τοῖς ἐν Σαφι καὶ τοῖς ἐν Εσθιε
καὶ τοῖς ἐν Γεθ καὶ τοῖς ἐν Κιναν καὶ τοῖς ἐν Σαφεκ καὶ τοῖς ἐν Θιμαθ

29 καὶ τοῖς ἐν Καρμήλῳ καὶ τοῖς ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν τοῦ Ιεραμηλι καὶ τοῖς ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν τοῦ Κενεζι

30 καὶ τοῖς ἐν Ιεριμουθ καὶ τοῖς ἐν Βηρσαβεε καὶ τοῖς ἐν Νοο

31 καὶ τοῖς ἐν Χεβρων καὶ εἰς πάντας τοὺς τόπους οὓς διῆλθεν Δαυιδ ἐκεῖ αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ

1 Cumque venissent David et viri ejus in Siceleg die tertia, Amalecitæ impetum fecerant ex parte australi in Siceleg, et percusserant Siceleg, et succenderant eam igni.

2 Et captivas duxerant mulieres ex ea, a minimo usque ad magnum: et non interfecerant quemquam, sed secum duxerant, et pergebant itinere suo.

3 Cum ergo venissent David et viri ejus ad civitatem, et invenissent eam succensam igni, et uxores suas, et filios suos et filias, ductas esse captivas,

4 levaverunt David et populus qui erat cum eo voces suas, et planxerunt donec deficerent in eis lacrimæ.

5 Siquidem et duæ uxores David captivæ ductæ fuerant, Achinoam Jezrahelites, et Abigail uxor Nabal Carmeli.

6 Et contristatus est David valde: volebat enim eum populus lapidare, quia amara erat anima uniuscujusque viri super filiis suis et filiabus: confortatus est autem David in Domino Deo suo.

7 Et ait ad Abiathar sacerdotem filium Achimelech: Applica ad me ephod. Et applicavit Abiathar ephod ad David.

8 Et consuluit David Dominum, dicens: Persequar latrunculos hos, et comprehendam eos, an non? Dixitque ei Dominus: Persequere: absque dubio enim comprehendes eos, et excuties prædam.

9 Abiit ergo David, ipse et sexcenti viri qui erant cum eo, et venerunt usque ad torrentem Besor: et lassi quidam substiterunt.

10 Persecutus est autem David ipse, et quadringenti viri: substiterant enim ducenti, qui lassi transire non poterant torrentem Besor.

11 Et invenerunt virum ægyptium in agro, et adduxerunt eum ad David: dederuntque ei panem ut comederet, et biberet aquam,

12 sed et fragmen massæ caricarum, et duas ligaturas uvæ passæ. Quæ cum comedisset, reversus est spiritus ejus, et refocillatus est: non enim comederat panem, neque biberat aquam, tribus diebus et tribus noctibus.

13 Dixit itaque ei David: Cujus es tu? vel unde? et quo pergis? Qui ait: Puer ægyptius ego sum, servus viri Amalecitæ: dereliquit autem me dominus meus, quia ægrotare cœpi nudiustertius.

14 Siquidem nos erupimus ad australem plagam Cerethi, et contra Judam, et ad meridiem Caleb, et Siceleg succendimus igni.

15 Dixitque ei David: Potes me ducere ad cuneum istum? Qui ait: Jura mihi per Deum quod non occidas me, et non tradas me in manus domini mei, et ego ducam te ad cuneum istum. Et juravit ei David.

16 Qui cum duxisset eum, ecce illi discumbebant super faciem universæ terræ comedentes et bibentes, et quasi festum celebrantes diem, pro cuncta præda et spoliis quæ ceperant de terra Philisthiim et de terra Juda.

17 Et percussit eos David a vespere usque ad vesperam alterius diei, et non evasit ex eis quisquam, nisi quadringenti viri adolescentes, qui ascenderant camelos et fugerant.

18 Eruit ergo David omnia quæ tulerant Amalecitæ, et duas uxores suas eruit.

19 Nec defuit quidquam a parvo usque ad magnum, tam de filiis quam de filiabus, et de spoliis, et quæcumque rapuerant: omnia reduxit David.

20 Et tulit universos greges et armenta, et minavit ante faciem suam: dixeruntque: Hæc est præda David.

21 Venit autem David ad ducentos viros qui lassi substiterant, nec sequi potuerant David, et residere eos jusserat in torrente Besor: qui egressi sunt obviam David et populo qui erat cum eo. Accedens autem David ad populum, salutavit eos pacifice.

22 Respondensque omnis vir pessimus et iniquus de viris qui ierant cum David, dixit: Quia non venerunt nobiscum, non dabimus eis quidquam de præda quam eruimus: sed sufficiat unicuique uxor sua et filii: quos cum acceperint, recedant.

23 Dixit autem David: Non sic facietis, fratres mei, de his quæ tradidit nobis Dominus, et custodivit nos, et dedit latrunculos qui eruperant adversum nos, in manus nostras:

24 nec audiet vos quisquam super sermone hoc: æqua enim pars erit descendentis ad prælium, et remanentis ad sarcinas, et similiter divident.

25 Et factum est hoc ex die illa et deinceps, constitutum et præfinitum, et quasi lex in Israël usque in diem hanc.

26 Venit ergo David in Siceleg, et misit dona de præda senioribus Juda proximis suis, dicens: Accipite benedictionem de præda hostium Domini:

27 his qui erant in Bethel, et qui in Ramoth ad meridiem, et qui in Jether,

28 et qui in Aroër, et qui in Sephamoth, et qui in Esthamo,

29 et qui in Rachal, et qui in urbibus Jerameel, et qui in urbibus Ceni,

30 et qui in Arama, et qui in lacu Asan, et qui in Athach,

31 et qui in Hebron, et reliquis qui erant in his locis in quibus commoratus fuerat David, ipse et viri ejus.
